Chapter 6 - She Cheated Too! (2)

Taking the tabloids from Larry, Justin calmly began to read what was on the screen, but at the first look his eyes suddenly shook violently before he quickly swiped up the pages impatiently. Everything written on screen did enter his eyes yet he seemed incapable of registering it onto his brain.

His first impression was,'Someone was framing Nina.'

The second was, 'This definitely isn't true! It was all photoshopped or maybe the person in the photo wasn't Nina but a look alike.'

But he knew that he was just in denial since he knew very well that the person in the photos was indeed his Nina. Her smile, the genuine happiness on her face, her figure, even the mole below her eyes. He was all too familiar with every single one of them.

It was true. The photos were true.

At that realization, Justin immediately slumped on his chair. His heart was in so much pain that he could found it difficult to hardly breathe.

Every part of him seems to be on fire, inside and out.

For some reason, a thought couldn't help but occur to him at that moment, 'Was this how Nina had also felt when she heard that news?'

Looking at him looking so despondent and sorrowful, Larry could not bear to continue lookinh at his boss who was obviously collapsing inwards. He knew just how much his boss loved Nina and the deeper the love he felt for her was probably how deep of a pain he was feeling right now.

Although, he knew he shouldn't, Larry still couldn't help bt develop some dissatisfaction towards Nina. His boss loved her so much but although he missed her like crazy, he buried himself in work since yesterday to numb himself and also to stop himself from taking drastic actions to force her back to his side. Moroever, he was also busy with devising plans to deal with Tyson which had drained him alot and not to forget that there was also that green tea b*tch.

It had only been a day but he felt like his boss already aged ten years.

Feeling the need to comfort and encourage his boss, Larry said, " Boss, it might actually not be what it seems. Maybe they have a sibling relationship..." Even to his own ears, the reason sounded too weak but still, although it might be cold comfort, it was better than none at all.

Justin didn't look like he heard those words as his eyes gradually became bloodshot and his aura murderous and violent, but suddenly he thought of the thought that had occured to him before now.

'Was this how Nina had also felt when she heard that news?'

Yes! His dim eyes suddenly lit up and at the same time the violent aura around him retracted. Thinking of how vengeful the person beside Nina was, it wasn't out of question for her to come up with this type of plan to get back at him for supposedly hurting Nina!

Then, without looking at Larry who had long since moved to a corner of the office after seeing Justin's aura becoming murderous, Justin grabbed his windbreaker and rushed out of the office. He practically ran to the garage, got on his car and drove past the speed limit towards Nina's house.

In his heart, he would rather believe that those photos had only been to get back at him than to believe that Nina had cheated on him.


Meanwhile

"You sure he's going to come?" Nina asked nervously, looking eagerly towards the door.

Raising her eyebrows elegantly, Selena looked unperturbed as she answered unhurriedly, "If he still doesn't appear considering how blown out of proportion the news was... Then I can only tell you this, girl. You might have wasted your entire youth on a scumbag!"

Nina heard her words and lowered her head her long, lustrous hair, covering up whatever expression she had on her face at that moment before answering non-committally, "Um."

Selena sighed exasperatedly when she saw her that way. She was almost unable to help but want to shout at her friend to get herself together but in the end, she sighed helpessly.

She still couldn't bear to see Nina sad.

"He will come. I know he will, okay?", She said with conviction, not because she was trying to deceive Nina but because she really did believe so. If she hadn't been so sure he would come, she definitely wouldn't have made this plan in this first place.

Almost as soon as she was done speaking,the furious sound of a car's engine came from outside. Nina ran excitedly to the window and peeked out to see a familiar car.

"He is here. He really is here." She repeated in an obviously good mood.

Selena sighed inwardly on seeing her reaction while thinking to herself.

'We women are all fools when in love. Even when we are continuously hurt by the men we love, we still uncontrollably pine for them.'

A knock came from the door.

Nina mouthed, "Open it".

Selena took no action and instead came over to Nina to whisper in her ears, "Let him wait and panick a little more."

Continuous knocking came from the door and even after a few minutes had gone by, the door still showed no signs of opening.

This made Justin really panicked and with every lesson he learned in the etiquette class thrown out the window, he raised his voice.

"Nina, I know you are inside. Open the door I need to talk to you. Baby, I am sorry, please open the door, okay?" His shouts gradually turned into pleading at the end. No one would ever believe that this business mogul who was known for being arrogant and prideful will dispose of his pride just to beg his lover.

Finally, moments later, the people inside the room seemed satisfied with the mental torture they had put him through and decided to open the door.
